Saraline has just violated her terms of employment, which require her to keep every call, even one she doesn’t actually handle, secret.

It shouldn't be too hard to close caption porn. Copy paste oooohhh, aaaaahhhhh, yes, yes, harder, harder, yesssssss, ahhhhhhhh, indiscernible high pitch squeal and grunts. Really CC porn?

What if I want to watch my porn without everyone knowing and need to lower the volume? How am I going to know what is going on? And amateur porn has terrible sound, I need my porn captioned.
